When those Ice-Blue Demon Eyes appeared in Fang Li's eyes, Fang Li's heart tightened.

Only when facing the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception as an opponent did Fang Li realize what it truly felt like to confront Magic Eye.

The feeling of having your body heat stolen away, of death breathing in your ear, of your heart about to stop at any moment, of your life being taken away at any moment, is like a nightmare for most people.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it.

Because, in the face of these Magic Eye, no matter what kind of being it is, as long as it can die, it is extremely fragile.

Under this feeling, Fang Li's Magic Eye also appeared without his knowledge.

In the dimly lit alley, two pairs of Magic Eye, capable of staring directly at death, stared at each other, instantly lowering the surrounding temperature to freezing point.

Fang Li completely ignored the atmosphere around him, his Ice-Blue Demon Eyes staring directly at the boy who was just as special as himself.

"Tohno Shiki..."

The boy was Tohno Shiki.

The main character in the Type-Moon Series "Tsukihime".

A boy who, like Fang Li, possesses the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

At this moment, under the simulation of the training ground, characters from the storyline who should not exist in this world appeared in front of Fang Li.

It has only one purpose.

Fighting.

"Click..."

With a slight sound like a switch being turned on and off, the knife in the simulated Tohno Shiki's hand tightened suddenly, its blade flashing with a cold light.

Upon seeing this, Fang Li's eyes narrowed, and he clenched his fist, quietly holding a dagger that shone like moonlight in his hand.

This was the last thing Fang Li managed to do.

"Pfft—!"

A tearing sound, like ripping silk, suddenly rang out.

The exploding blood splattered into the sky.

Fang Li's pupils suddenly contracted.

Suddenly, Tohno Shiki, who was in front of Fang Li just a second ago, appeared in front of Fang Li in an instant, his Ice-Blue Demon Eyes cold and indifferent.

In his hand, the dagger-like knife had already transformed into light, slicing Fang Li's arm Fang Li was holding the dagger, open and falling to the ground.

Fang Li couldn't even feel the pain.

Immediately, the dagger in the hand of the boy with the Mystic Eyes of Mystic Eyes of Death Perception slashed and pierced Fang Li's heart.

"Whoosh—!"

In a blur of images, the dimly lit alley disappeared, returning to the sealed space it had been in at the beginning.

In the center of the sealed space, Fang Li stood there blankly, one hand holding a dagger and the other clutching his heart, speechless for a long time.

Perhaps, those unaware of the situation will mistake everything that just happened for an illusion.

However, Fang Li knew that everything that had just happened could be considered real in some sense.

The training and combat conducted in the training ground are all carried out in a simulated manner.

However, those things are all really happening.

In other words, although it was just a simulated battle, Fang Li was indeed killed once just now.

He was Instant Kill by another boy who possessed the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

"This is the difference?"

Recalling the battle that had just ended in such a predictable manner, Fang Li was speechless.

In Fang Li's setting, Tohno Shiki's attributes are exactly the same as his own.

In other words, in terms of physical abilities, Fang Li and Tohno Shiki are completely identical.

Furthermore, since both possess the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, they are practically indistinguishable.

However, the result was that Fang Li was Instant Kill.

"Because of technique?"

Yes.

Because of technique.

Tohno Shiki, whose real name is Shiki Nanaya, is a descendant of the Seven Nights Clan, one of the Four Great Demon-Exterminating Families in the Type-Moon World.

Although the Seven Nights family is a demon-slaying family, they are actually a family known for their Assassination Arts. In order to exorcise demons, the members of this family have developed physical skills that have surpassed the limits of human beings.

Using the surrounding environment for unique movement, with a walking style that defies common sense, extreme speed that surpasses human capabilities, and spider-like unpredictable movement, it can suddenly accelerate from a stationary state, suddenly turn at extremely high speeds, and quickly capture the spatial utilization techniques of surrounding objects— the Seven Nights Assassination Technique.

Its characteristics lie in the speed of movement and the unexpectedness of its moves.

This Assassination Arts, honed to its extreme, combined with the power of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, allowed Tohno Shiki to kill countless inhuman beings, including some of the top vampires, making him incredibly powerful and terrifying.

Despite having identical physical abilities, Fang Li was Instant Kill by Tohno Shiki because of this Assassination Arts.

"And I remember that Tohno Shiki only learned the most basic self-defense techniques of the Seven Nights Assassination Technique, right?"

Fang Li really didn't know how to react.

Is it really that scary just because I learned basic self-defense techniques?

Although Fang Li hadn't switched his mindset yet and was somewhat careless, the Instant Kill was still a bit too much, wasn't it?

Tohno Shiki is already like this if he can only use the basic parts. How terrifying would Shiki Nanaya be if he could use the complete Seven Nights Assassination Technique?

Upon thinking of this, Fang Li's relaxed mindset, which had been somewhat relaxed due to the training, immediately tightened up.

"Again!"

Fang Li then opened the interface and began a simulated battle once again.

The opponent, naturally, is still Tohno Shiki.

This time, Fang Li was on high alert and focused all his attention on the battle.

Under these circumstances, Tohno Shiki Fang Li noticed Tono Shiki's sudden acceleration to the limit while still, and reacted in time.

However, the flash that accelerates to the limit while stationary is only part of the Seven Nights Assassination Technique.

The true terror of the Seven Nights Assassination Technique lies in its unique use of the surrounding environment for movement. Both its actions and footwork embody speed and surprise.

The Seven Nights Assassination Technique includes moves for both the "arms" and the "feet".

The arm's technique is called Flash Sheath.

The footwork move is called "Flash Run".

Tohno Shiki had only learned basic self-defense techniques, so he didn't have many fancy and exciting moves. However, during the fight, his footwork was as unpredictable as a spider's, sometimes staying close to the ground, sometimes leaping onto walls, sometimes charging forward with his head down, and sometimes turning around and retreating rapidly. His swift and agile movements left Fang Li with no choice but to parry.

When Tohno Shiki's sword-wielding movements also became strange and rapid, Fang Li was unable to defend himself.

"Pfft—!"

In a moment of carelessness, Fang Li's neck was severed, and a large amount of blood gushed out.

The training ground returned to its original state, allowing Fang Li to return.

Now, Fang Li has really become famous.

"Again!"

The dimly lit alleyway returned, and the boy who had just died appeared before Fang Li once again.

Thus, Fang Li's training began.
